"Global Content Block" or GCB or as it used to be called "HTML Blobs" are little blobs of HTML code that you can re-use in your templates, and pages without having to copy text all over the place. or {global_content name='Name of Global Content Block'} or {html_blob name='stuff'} in older CMSMS versions like 0.12

Thank you for such a quick reply!

That sounds very helpful.

I've just realised now where to create them in the admin panel, they are very useful and appear easy to use. Thanks again!
